Chapter 583 This Is the Playoffs!

"Yes, are you serious?"

Even if Durant goes undercover, is he still confident that he can lead the Seattle SuperSonics to promotion?

How can this be?

It's not that Wang Han doesn't believe it, but it's just too unbelievable.

Just looking at the Nuggets' lineup at this time, you can clearly feel how strong this team is.

Camby, Nene, Martin, Anthony, Hamilton, Billups, Jr Smith...

According to the current public opinion in the United States, if the Seattle SuperSonics did not consider Yes, if it were not Yes, it would always create miracles. If the Denver Nuggets encountered the SuperSonics, it would be a sweep!

This is the most direct comparison of the strength of the two sides. Now Ye Si actually told him that Durant was undercover and the Sonics could advance, which is hard to believe.

The Sonics don't have that much fault tolerance.

If the Sonics want to defeat the Nuggets, they must rely on Durant to perform. Even if he performs, he may not win, let alone undercover.

However, facing Wang Han's confused eyes, Ye Si seemed not to see it.

Looking at Ye Si's back, Wang Han also sighed.

"Sister Han, does what we just shot need to be broadcast on the front line?"

"No."

After Wang Han finished speaking, he thought for a moment and added: "No need now."

No need to do it now. If Yes is really eliminated by the Nuggets under Durant's undercover in the future, he will release this video.

Otherwise, if this video is released now, I am afraid that the pressure on Ye Si cannot be described as great.

However, even if one day the Nuggets really defeat the SuperSonics, at that time, fans at home or around the world will still be shocked when they see this video, right?

Although this day is impossible.

Wang Han has always felt that Ye Si could win against any opponent in the league with the SuperSonics.

Only the Nuggets are an opponent that gives the Sonics no chance.

The NBA regular season is over, and the entire SuperSonics has now entered playoff mode.

This switch from the regular season to the playoffs will take some time for the teams in the Eastern Conference. Except for the teams at the back, the Eastern Conference teams have not sprinted at all this season.

Even for the teams at the back of the Eastern Conference, the pressure on the Cavaliers completely disappeared after the internal strife between O'Neal and James.

It can be said that if these playoff teams in the Eastern Conference want to enter the playoffs, it really takes time to adjust.

It's completely different here in the west.

Eight teams have almost sprinted for a season.

Not to mention playoff status, even if it's the Western Conference Finals, even if it's Finals status, some teams can do it!

Just take the Seattle SuperSonics' opponent, the Denver Nuggets, as a team that can definitely get into Finals form right away.

At the end of the season, the Nuggets really destroyed whoever they saw.

And what about supersonic speed?

Although the SuperSonics don't look as crazy as the Nuggets, they have also maintained their best form.

Therefore, for the Sonics, this game with the Nuggets is destined to be a tough battle.

No matter what the final result is, whether it is possible to be massacred or humiliated by a big score.

As far as the game went, the SuperSonics players would never think that they would easily defeat the Nuggets.

The SuperSonics players are training seriously and preparing for the game.

SuperSonics head coach Nelson is studying the Nuggets' tactics.

Nelson is one of the greatest tacticians in NBA history.

For him, most of the league's tactics are beyond him.

But when studying the tactics against the Nuggets, Nelson's brows never relaxed.

The Nuggets' tactics are actually not that complicated.

This is a team that pursues offensive rhythm very much.

The offensive pace is so fast that it is staggering.

As long as it can advance the offensive rhythm, the Nuggets will use any tactic.

Facing such a team, there are actually no targeted tactics at all.

In addition to the fast pace, the Nuggets themselves don't know what tactics they are playing.

Facing such a team, Nelson is also very experienced.

What kind of team has he not seen in all his years in the NBA?

In the history of the NBA, there have indeed been rhythm teams like the Nuggets.

But he has never seen a rhythm team like the Nuggets that doesn't look like a rhythm team at all.

Generally, fast-paced teams are always accompanied by a lot of turnovers, a lot of confusion, and a lot of mistakes.

However, after studying the Nuggets in a targeted manner, Nelson found that the Nuggets made very few mistakes during the game, very few mistakes, and even very few confusions.

"The Nuggets have a great point guard."

Billups' numbers with the Nuggets are not as impressive as Anthony's.

Anthony's current data with the Nuggets is 31 points per game, and he currently ranks third in the scoring list, second only to Durant in first place and Iverson in second place.

But if you take into account Anthony's performance of 35.5 points per game after the All-Star Game, it is understandable why Anthony's evaluation in the NBA has increased so much recently.

It can be said that Anthony is one of the hottest players in the NBA right now.

And Billups has always been hidden behind Anthony's back. Not to mention after the All-Star Game, even before the All-Star Game, Billups didn't have much sense of presence.

Maybe Billups doesn't get as much news coverage as Jr. Smith in the Nuggets.

However, he is such an extremely low-key point guard, but he is the most important part of the Nuggets' tactics.

George Karl's Youth Storm-style rhythm system can score 168 points in a game without overtime if you play it too hard, but similarly, if you don't play it so high, it is likely to derail like a train, with the car crashing and people dying. .

And Billups is the brake and the locomotive of this train.

With Billups, the Nuggets are now more than just a beastly team that only plays at a fast pace and with their own instincts.

Beast-type teams are easy to deal with. For Nelson, there is basically no difficulty in dealing with those beast-type teams in the league.

But it's really not that easy for a team as smart and beastly as the Nuggets.

It should be said that Nelson has no way to tactically find a way to defeat the Nuggets.

Tactically, the Sonics have no way to beat the Nuggets.

So if they want to defeat the Nuggets, the Sonics can only start with personnel.

Let the team ranked seventh or eighth in the Western Conference in terms of hard power defeat the team ranked third or fourth in the Western Conference?

This is like a fantasy.

"No wonder public opinion across the country says that if the SuperSonics can defeat the Nuggets and advance this season, it will be a miracle comparable to last year's Black Eight."

According to these people, they can't find any reason why the Sonics can beat the Nuggets.

Media pundits across the country couldn't find a reason for the Sonics to beat the Nuggets.

But as the head coach of the SuperSonics, Nelson has to continue to find this method.

Whether he could find it or not, he needed to continue.

On April 19, 2008, the two-day break at the end of the NBA regular season ended. On this day, the NBA playoffs will all kick off.

The game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Nuggets is the finale of the last game on April 19th.

After the Seattle SuperSonics players finished their morning and noon training, they came early to the viewing room specially prepared for SuperSonics players at Key Arena.

"very nervous?"

"No, not nervous!"

Ye Si looked at Durant, whose lips were a little white but still had a arrogant and cold expression on his face, and nodded.

"It's normal to play in the playoffs for the first time, and it's the same for me to play in the playoffs for the first time."

Ye Si thought of those five ferocious tigers that spring.

"KD, don't be fooled by Yes. In the first playoff game of his career, facing the league's No. 1 player, Yes scored 39 points at halftime and broke the first playoff score in NBA history at halftime. record, the half-time record was broken, and Yes’ statistics in the first playoff game of his career were 54 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.”

"..."

"..."

David Lee smiled and said to me, and Ye Si and Durant were silent for a while.

All the Sonics players next to him burst out laughing.

Listening to the laughter of his teammates, Durant, who was pretending to be cold and arrogant, turned red from holding back his dark face.

Of course he knew what his teammates were laughing at.

Yes played in the playoffs for the first time and was so nervous that he scored 54+11+8. Even if you are nervous, it cannot be used as an excuse for poor performance.

He was not prepared to use nervousness as an excuse for poor performance.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t say that he wasn’t nervous anymore!

He is so stubborn just because he doesn't want to use nervousness as an excuse!

only……

54 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks...

Durant certainly knows how great Yes' performance was in the first playoff game of his career.

This is the greatness that laid the foundation for the miracle of sweeping Black Eight.

He never thought he could perform like this in his first career playoff game.

I didn’t even think about cutting it in half.

Even if he got half of Yes's data in this game, 27 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, this is still a perfect data for a rookie.

Seeing Durant's dark face suppressed by everyone's laughter, Rondo looked happy.

Haha, Fifteen, you also have today!

"Speaking of which, Rajon's first playoff statistics were also incredible, with 15 assists in the half and 24 assists in the whole game. In the first playoff game of his career, he tied the half-time mark of the NBA playoffs. and the all-time assist record.”

"Rajian's performance was really good in that game, although I think most of Rajan's assists were attributed to Yes, hahahahaha..."

Kudos to you!

Rondo, who was still laughing at Durant in his heart, instantly looked like Durant on his side.

Damn it, can you give the second master some face?

Even if you know it, you won’t tell it. Don’t you understand?

When the second master one day becomes the boss of the team while Yes doesn't know about it, you will look good!

"The playoffs have begun, let's first feel the atmosphere of this year's playoffs."

After Ye Si finished speaking, Durant nodded slightly, and Howard and Bosh appeared on the TV.

The first game of today's playoffs is between the Magic, which is fourth in the Eastern Conference, and the Raptors, which is fifth in the Eastern Conference.

This is an ordinary playoff game.

At this stage, the Magic and the Raptors are considered the two best teams in the Eastern Conference playoffs. The Raptors have been going crazy this season, and the Magic's Howard has been ridiculed by O'Neal after the All-Stars and has always wanted to prove Own.

The two teams played very tightly in this game.

The confrontation was fierce and tense at the same time.

In an ironclad battle, the Magic finally defeated the Raptors 99-85 at home.

"Howard is really good this year. The Raptors are no match for the Magic."

Anyone who is not a fool can see the gap between the Raptors and the Magic.

The other Sonics players were discussing the game, but Yeosi had been paying attention to Durant.

The look on Durant's face now is one of surprise.

Is this the playoffs?

Even superstars like Howard and Bosh are nervous and don't perform as well as before?

"The intensity of the playoffs is not only the intensity of the game, but also the psychological intensity. When you can really deal with it normally, there will be no difference between the playoffs and the regular season."

Durant looked back at Ye Si beside him, gritted his teeth and nodded.

He knows that he can't do it now...

Watching the game between the Magic and the Raptors, the Seattle SuperSonics players were all smiles.

For the current SuperSonics, they do look down on the level of three-legged cats like the Magic and Raptors.

But in the next two games, the looks on the faces of Sonics players were not so relaxed.

The next two games are the Suns and Grizzlies, and the Lakers and Spurs.

Four teams from the top seven in the Western Conference will make their first appearance in the playoffs.

Each of the top seven teams in the Western Conference is a potential future opponent for the Sonics.

Will the quality of these opponents drop in the playoffs?

This is something the Sonics care about very much.

These two games prove that it is not unreasonable for the top seven in the Western Conference to be considered historically strong teams.

Except for the Grizzlies' Oden, who was a bit frustrated because he was playing in the playoffs for the first time and could not successfully implement the team's tactics to get Stoudemire out of the foul crisis, the performances of other superstars were quite exciting, especially the fourth in the Western Conference. This game is between the Spurs and the fifth-place Lakers in the Western Conference.

All the Sonics players in the viewing room stood watching the game until the end.

Many people say that this game between the Lakers and Spurs is perhaps the closest matchup in the first round of the Western Conference.

But most people will believe that the Spurs should be able to win their first home game.

But……

"I didn't expect the Lakers to actually defeat the Spurs and win the Spurs' home court..."

101 to 98, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Spurs in an away game.

And not under the leadership of Kobe, Kobe only scored 22 points on 6 of 16 shots in this game.

The key to the Lakers' victory in this game is Zach Randolph, the league's famous rotten tofu!

That rotten tofu that the whole world would think would tremble in front of Duncan before the game!

Seeing Randolph suppress Duncan during the game really gave people an incredible feeling. Not to mention other people, even Ye Si would feel the same way.

It's amazing, but this is the playoffs!

"The playoffs are a place where the strong reap the rewards, and a place where the brave change their fate against the odds."

Durant turned his head blankly, and his surprised expression kept changing.

I'm not a strong person.

But...am I a brave man?

Durant clenched his fists tightly.

"Boys, it's our turn!"
